The documentation already includes standard sizes in text:
"Standard size and alignment are as follows: no alignment is required
for any type (so you have to use pad bytes); short is 2 bytes; int and
long are 4 bytes; long long (__int64 on Windows) is 8 bytes; float and
double are 32-bit and 64-bit IEEE floating point numbers,
respectively. _Bool is 1 byte."
It may be helpful to add "Standard size" column to the code table with
a footnote that it only applies when <, > or ! code is used and that
for native sizes one should consult struct.calcsize(). |
